Mostly yes, if the weather does not put you off. June in New Orleans is Lively on the typical day, and not one of the 30 days in our window is crowded enough to call Busy. Expect around 31 °C by day, with rain on about 18 days. Public holidays in United States add to it. No week of June is meaningfully quieter — the typical day is Lively throughout; pick by day instead. The crush is at Bourbon Street at night; the quiet is at Royal and Chartres by day. The calmest day is Tuesday 1 June, the busiest Friday 18 June.
In short, a solid middle-ground pick.
